Jeff Quipp from Search Engine People has a great post on 50+ Sites to Help You Bury Negative Posts About You or Your Company.
What if you don’t have any negative publicity, but you’re also not showing up for positive results? Use his tactics for online reputation management to enhance yours.
Go down the list of his suggested sites, building a profile on each, with one of your top tier keyword phrases (or your company name) as your profile name. Make sure you have prominent links to your site within the profile.
Over time you should start seeing your keyword phrase moving up the first page of Google via the various site profiles. This is an especially good tactic if you’re trying to build a brand.
As Jeff says in his article, this action can also help protect your reputation in the event an angry client or someone else tries cause you harm online.

Thanks Kay … I really like your ‘positive spin’ on the topic. You know what they say … an ounce of prevention ….
Thanks again Kay!
@Jeff - you’re welcome! Thanks for your great article.
That’s a good list if you name is besmirched. If it’s a company name, shooting out press releases will help in the short term until longer term strategies can be implemented.
@seo technology - I like your suggestion about press releases. You’re right, they will definitely help in the short term.
Kay, thanks as I don’t often get to say the word “besmirched”.
Another thing that helps in reputation management is giving a little link love to the pages just below the offending results page. Why reinvent the wheel when you can boost results that are already there.
seo technology - good tip!
